Creep

Radiohead Creep lyrics was written 5 years before its publish day about a woman, when the lead singer of the band, Thom Yorke was still a student; In the book Radiohead: Hysterical and Useless, it’s been mentioned Thom sung this for a girl who he thought she’s too good for him so he never approached.

Lyrics

When you were here before
Couldn’t look you in the eye
You’re just like an angel
Your skin makes me cry
You float like a feather
In a beautiful world
I wish I was special
You’re so damn special

But I’m a creep
I’m a weirdo
What the hell am I doing here?
I don’t belong here

I don’t care if it hurts
I want to have control
I want a perfect body
I want a perfect soul
I want you to notice
When I’m not around
You’re so damn special
I wish I was special

But I’m a creep
I’m a weirdo
What the hell am I doing here?
I don’t belong here

Oh, oh

She’s running out again
She’s running out
She run run run run
Run

Whatever makes you happy
Whatever you want
You’re so damn special
I wish I was special

But I’m a creep
I’m a weirdo
What the hell am I doing here?
I don’t belong here
